Answer:

120,000 J

Explanation:

The work done by a force applied parallel to an object is given by:

$W=Fd$

where

F is the magnitude of the force applied

d is the displacement of the object

In this problem:

F = 8000 N is the force exerted by the elevator to lift the passenger

d = 15 m is the displacement of the elevator

Therefore, the work done in this situation is

$W=(8000)(15)=120,000 J$

So, the work done is 120,000 J.

Answer:

0.144 kg of water

Explanation:

From Raoult's law,

Mole fraction of solvent = vapor pressure of solution ÷ vapor pressure of solvent = 423 mmHg ÷ 528.8 mmHg = 0.8

Let the moles of solvent (water) be y

Moles of solute (C3H8O3) = 2 mole

Total moles of solution = moles of solvent + moles of solute = (y + 2) mol

Mole fraction of solvent = moles of solvent/total moles of solution

0.8 = y/(y + 2)

y = 0.8(y + 2)

y = 0.8y + 1.6

y - 0.8y = 1.6

0.2y = 1.6

y = 1.6/0.2 = 8

Moles of solvent (water) = 8 mol

Mass of water = moles of water × MW = 8 mol × 18 g/mol = 144 g = 144/1000 = 0.144 kg

During a baseball game, a batter hits a pop-up to a fielder 93 m away.The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s2.If the ball remain

velikii [3]

Explanation:

It is given that, a batter hits a pop-up to a fielder 93 m away, range of the projectile, R = 93 m

The ball remains in the air for 5.4 s, the time of flight is 5.4 s

Time of flight : $T=\dfrac{2v\sin\theta}{g}$

$5.4=\dfrac{2v\sin\theta}{g}\\\\v\sin\theta=\dfrac{5.4\times 9.8}{2}\\\\v\sin\theta=26.46$

Maximum height of the projectile : $H=\dfrac{v^2\sin^2\theta}{2g}$

We need to find H.

So,

$H=\dfrac{(v\sin\theta)^2}{2g}\\\\H=\dfrac{(26.46)^2}{2\times 9.8}\\\\H=35.72\ m$

So, it will rise to a height of 35.72 m.
